How about getting rid of that Dish Network ad??

The thing constantly pops up, and covering part of the screen.
If this is a free site, I'd understand. But, if I'm paying a premium, I shouldn't have to see a constant barrage of ads - particularly ones that pop up over the board, and sometimes do not have a close key (X).
Hate to whine, but this is out of line.

I have no ad - this may be compressed by my computer. I believe there is a way to adjust your computer to stop most pop ups. I have no Dish Ads popping up

I have no ads at all, but I use firefox with the Adblock Plus plugin, which blocks all ads.

I apologize for that and totally understand why that would be annoying.
Like the others, I don't have it happening to me.
I'd suggest contacting support@247sports.com to get the matter resolved.

I've had this before a few times, but it has since stopped for me. It's especially annoying when it happens on the mobile site.

Thanks for the suggestion Tim. And, I forgot about the 247support email address. So, I appreciate the reminder.
Come to think of it, perhaps different computers do different things. On my home computer, there is a dish network ad at the top of the page, and that Hopper kangaroo pops out (without the x-close button). But I never see it when I log on at work. So, I see why not everyone saw it.

If you're using Internet Explorer, it's your own fault. Switch to Firefox or Chrome.

You need to get the adblock plus plugin then. You will never see another ad, ever.
